'Neighbours' And Channel 5 'Reach New Deal', Meaning It Won't Be Leaving Our Screens Just Yet

It seems ‘Neighbours’ fans can finally breathe a sigh of relief, with fresh reports that the show will be staying on UK screens after all. Last month, it was suggested that the long-running Australian soap’s future on British television could be in jeopardy after more than 30 years on the air, following claims that the production company were struggling to reach a deal with Channel 5, who broadcast ‘Neighbours’.Fortunately, The Mirror has now suggested that a deal has been reached, meaning ‘Neighbours’ isn’t going anywhere for at least another four years.

Channel 4 's acquisition of The Great British Bake Off has already given us new hosts and a new judge, and now it's giving us a longer runtime too, with each Bake Off episode now lasting a total of 75 minutes .

The Great British Bake Off will air for the first time on Channel 4 this year, and the network has confirmed that it will run for a whooping 75 minutes so that the episodes can remain the same length as they were on the BBC while allowing for advert breaks. Fans were quick to praise the decision, with one writing: "Channel 4 extend Bake Off to 75 minutes. Well at least they’ve got that right. #GBBO," while another joked: "Wondering how many times Mr Kipling will be mentioned in the breaks."

The show will also see its former presenter Mel Giedroyc and Sue Perkins replaced by Noel Fielding and Sandi Toksvig after the pair confirmed that they wouldn't be moving to Channel 4 with the baking programme. While Paul Hollywood has remained as a judge, the other judge Mary Berry also confirmed she would remain with the BBC, with Prue Leith taking over her role on the show.

The extra 15 minutes will mean that fans will still get an hour of the show, not including adverts. Comedian Jo Brand has also announced she will join the channel with her spin- off programme, The Great British Bake Off : An Extra Slice.

The show recently shared a photo of the new gang and fans joked about the new group, with one writing: "The GBBO picture literally looks like a family taking their goth son to a village fayre," while another teased: "What is Professor Snape doing hosting #GBBO?"

Sandi has previously opened up about presenting the show with Noel, saying: "Noel Fielding is one of the nicest guys in show business. The first time I met him I felt like I had met a rather wayward cousin whose take on the world made me laugh. The only down side is that he has much better dress sense that I do."

Noel added: "GBBO is one of my favourite shows. I've always loved brightly coloured cakes and Sandi Toksvig so this is a dream come true for me! It’s basically the double."
